BREAKING: Elon Musk just became the first person in history to hit a $500 billion net worth, according to the Forbes billionaires index.

His stake in Tesla remains his biggest driver, at more than 12.4% as of September 15.

HISTORY: NVIDIA just became the first company to hit a $4.5 trillion market cap.⁠

The surge comes as the chipmaker cements its role at the center of the AI boom, with plans to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI and help build the $500 billion “Stargate” data center project alongside Oracle. Citi analysts raised their price target to $210, citing soaring AI infrastructure spending.⁠

Meanwhile, Nvidia-backed CoreWeave struck a $14.2 billion deal to supply Meta with AI infrastructure, underscoring how deeply Nvidia’s GPUs dominate the sector. CEO Jensen Huang estimates its products account for 70% of the costs of a new AI data center.⁠

From her YouTube beginnings as the Awkward Black Girl to HBO’s Insecure and Mattel’s billion-dollar 'Barbie' franchise, Issa Rae has built an empire on storytelling and relatability. She’s spent her career championing stories that reflect the people and communities she cares about most — and in the process, has become one of Hollywood’s most influential creators.⁠

That vision drives her work behind the camera with Hoorae Media, which recently produced 'One of Them Days,' a $14 million indie comedy starring Keke Palmer and SZA that cleared $50M at the box office.

For our cover story, Rae sat down with journalist and Prime Video’s 'Thursday Night Football' host Taylor Rooks for a candid conversation on creativity, valuing your work, and yes — whether we’ll ever see an 'Insecure' movie.⁠

Miami Vice is coming back to theaters with a new feature film set for release in August 2027. Joseph Kosinski — the director of Top Gun: Maverick and this summer’s F1 — will helm the project.⁠

Inspired by the pilot and first season of the iconic 1980s series, the remake follows the franchise’s second big-screen outing after the 2006 version starring Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell, which grossed $165 million on a $135 million budget.⁠

Casting is still underway, but Kosinski’s reboot aims to deliver a bold, cinematic revival of the show that helped define an era of TV and fashion.⁠
